Maya Rudolph As Rachel Dolezal Is Perfect

We're almost finished with Ms. Dolezal, but there is one more thing.

I know two things for certain: Maya Rudolph is a national treasure, and Saturday Night Live players tend to do their best work when they've had some time away from Studio 8H and have gotten a full night's sleep. This clip from Late Night With Seth Meyers illustrates both points nicely. Rudolph and Meyers agree that once a person has left SNL, people on the street stop them and weigh in on what current newsmakers they were born to play. We can't help it either: at the height of the Sony hacking scandal, Ana Gasteyer as Amy Pascal would have been delicious. In Rudolph's case, the fans have demanded a Rachel Dolezal impression. Being a woman of the people, Ms. Rudolph complies, and the results are understated and perfect.
